Guest's Review of Tecumseh Yard Works Lawn Mower

Good Points

It was a sensible little mower - humble but it was our Prius in a lawnmower. Nice and quiet in use, it was light and compact, and did a terrific job.


Bad Points

Yardworks.
Our own weakness makes it a poor choice for us - we can't abide by a year-long commitment for an item that sees 4-6 months of use. For better-organized people, this'd be much-mitigated and thereby not such a bad mower.


General Comments

Decent little mower, except for the Yardworks (and Canadian Tire) service, and the damnable rechargeable battery. Used it twice last summer, then shelved it for the winter, taking care to bring the battery indoors. Once spring had finally sprung, charged the battery up (and was pleased when the green light came on nearly immediately), took it outside and... nothing. My own folly for not having read or remembered the manual, but I'm to charge the battery monthly during the six or seven months it's not in use (I live in Alberta, Canada) or else be faced with a useless mower or buy a new battery for $140. The solution for me is to go back to a gas-powered mower for $300 - not Yardworks, not at any cost. What a frustration.
